[YouTube]s to Share With The Class

I just like this thread for posting cool and funny videos, do we really need to be updated every time some racist dude on youtube puts his foot in his mouth again?

A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

Right after the """"debate"""" his sub went ballistic with shitposting and jokes and shitting on Jon, it was hilarious. Unfortunately the mods deleted seemingly all of it, for a bit a post titled "Incredible JonTron Cosplay" and was just a picture of a burning dumpster was the 3rd highest voted submission in the sub's history. There's still some winners though:

At least a lot of his fans seem to be taking him to task and either criticizing him or outright dumping him, so that's a positive.

As they should

No no, you have to double down on the stupidity and "ironic" racism, and claim the Wall Street Journal is trying to censor them, like PewDiePie's fans are doing.

“I said lots of stuff that could be misconstrued in all sorts of ways,” said Jafari, better known to his fans as JonTron. An alumnus of the let’s play group Game Grumps, the YouTuber has become better known for making comedy videos ever since he left the group in 2013.

In an effort to clarify statements like “if they immigrate they need to integrate, but also we don’t need immigrants from incompatible places,” and “I don’t think a pure society is possible, but in terms of a demographic majority, I don’t know that a nation can exist without one,” the YouTuber tried to lay out his views in a more prepared and ordered manner, away from the “pressure” of his almost two hour debate on Bonnell’s stream.

“I was trying to speak to the increasing tribalization of our culture,” said Jafari, and he believes the remarks brought up offhand late at night on a “random” Twitch stream viewed by tens of thousands of people didn’t accurately reflect this.

Someone really needs to explain to him the first rule of finding yourself in a hole: STOP DIGGING.

I feel an enormous amount of shame over once defending Jontron on this very forum. He's a bad person. Fuck him.

They aren't there now but when I saw that JT video the top 3 comments were all "My name is Jeff"
I looked up the meme and watched the vines but I still don't get the relevance, is it just today's hot thing to post in comments or did it mean something

Nah, I'm mashing Agree on Kana's post as hard as possible, until I realized that just toggles it on and off, and just left it at on. Because

I too want to ignore the global rise of white nationalism

I don't think anyone is ignoring it here. We know he's a crazy racist already, but we don't need to hear every crazy racist thing he says. Ya don't need to regularly post InfoWars content for us to know it's full of crazy racist shit too.

I don't think they'll address this at all unless pushback is strong enough

They didn't add LGBT content to the filter because there was a staggering amount of NSFW video in that community, they did it because of the fucked up assumption that so much as the awareness that LGBT individuals exist is not "family friendly"

Probably. I mean, we still get complaints at my library from customers who don't think And Tango Makes Three should be on the shelf in the kid's section, and it's not because they're afraid of explicit content in a picture book about penguins.

And I'd bet that they came to that sort of "conclusion" courtesy of a targeted complaint campaign.
